Had a magnetic mounting plate for a smoke detector that was glued to the ceiling and no longer in use after I got a new smoke detector.
And since it was annoying and ugly, and next to a moon lamp, there was only one thing I could realistically do, right?
3D print a Saturn V rocket and attach it with magnets.

The pub also had proper old school arcade games -- one Pac Man and one Space Invaders -- set to free play. And there was a young lad, looked maybe 11 or 12, having the time of his life on those.

"We show that this design can, in principle, find half of all existing Earth-like planets orbiting sun-like stars within 30 light-years in less than three years."

Synthetic biology could support future outposts on the moon and Mars
As humanity sets its sights on long-duration missions to the moon, Mars, and beyond, keeping astronauts healthy will be as critical as building rockets or habitats. A new paper appearing in npj Microgravity explores the possibilities of synthetic biology in accomplishing this.

NordSpace is 30 minutes away from attempting their first Sub-Orbital rocket launch. This would be the first commercial rocket launch from Canadian soil!

Solar powered moon brick factory could build future lunar cities
Chinese scientists have developed a remarkable machine that could revolutionize how humans build structures on the moon. The device works like a 3D printer powered by concentrated sunlight, turning lunar soil (known as regolith) into strong construction bricks without needing any materials from Earth.

Looks like we got the ignition but the engine did not light. Rockets are hard! Hopefully next time.

Boil, freeze, bubble, crack, repeat! Scientists simulate the solar system's 'ice volcanoes' in the lab
Scientists have been able to recreate the extreme conditions found on icy moons in deep space—and revealed the unstable behavior of water.
